PDCWednesday, 16 November 2022 at 19:33
The schedule has been confirmed ahead of the 2022 Players Championship Finals which will take place between Friday November 25 - Sunday November 27 at Butlins in Minehead. A second trip to the resort and the final stop on the PDC calendar before the big one at the Alexandra Palace, the PDC World Darts Championship.
Peter Wright was due to be defending champion and face Ross Smith but has since withdrawn with Gian van Veen taking his spot. They will be part of a main stage bumper session from Friday morning which starts at 10:30.
Also on the main stage includes Joe Cullen, top seed Damon Heta, Josh Rock, Dimitri van den Bergh, Luke Humphries, Raymond van Barneveld and the most successful player ever in this tournament in Michael van Gerwen who will look to regain his title after a barren year in terms of ITV staged majors.
It begins at 10:30 and ends at 18:30 due to the impending start of the World Cup this weekend in Qatar with only one session on Friday and double sessions throughout the weekend including the World Youth final on Sunday between the semi-finals and final.

- Well done Mike – good to move on and look to the future. With his talent, and increasing confidence on stage, he'll be a force to be reckoned with in the month ahead.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
